Zendaya is presenting at the 2024 Oscars, which is great news for all of us because her looks on the Dune press tour have. not. missed. And honestly, I now view the Oscars red carpet as her personal runway, so sorry to all the nominees!
Anyway, Zendaya showed up in a gorgeous sparkling Armani Privé gown and looked absolutely flawless, as you can see:
Zendaya’s longtime stylist Law Roach actually talked to Vogue about his approach to dressing the actor as she promotes Dune, saying, “We adopted method dressing. The looks served as an extension of the wardrobe from the movie. It was intentional and purposeful.”
The iconic stylist also explained, “We never work based on what we think somebody’s reaction is going to be. We’ve been [pulling vintage] since Zendaya and I began working together, for 13 years now. At first, it came out of necessity because back when we started, nobody would lend her clothes. And I come from vintage—I had a vintage store in Chicago—so a lot of the things that she wore were things from my store or vintage pieces.”
He also spoke about dressing Zendaya in vintage, confirming that they buy (vs. borrow) so they can alter pieces to fit her. “If we’re really going to have conversations about sustainability, wearing something that somebody else has is kind of the easiest way to do it. Beautiful clothes should live the longest lives possible and as many lives as possible. They shouldn’t just lay dormant somewhere. It’s very intentional. I would never destroy a Lee McQueen! But we are able to alter things a little bit because we buy it. We don’t borrow from vintage dealers—we buy. It’s important to support smaller businesses.”
